Tasting notes

Garnet red with ruby reflections. The nose shows red and black forest berries, raspberry and cherry, with spice, black pepper and a flinty, mineral note. The palate is medium-bodied, juicy and lively, with silky tannins, fresh acidity and a long, savoury finish of red fruit and spice.

About this wine

Krafuss is the Pinot Noir of Alois Lageder from the Renaissance estate of the same name on a hill above San Michele Appiano in South Tyrol. The vineyard lies at 430 to 450 metres on clay and gravel soils over calcareous glacial deposits; it was replanted at high density in 1991 and is farmed biodynamically with Demeter certification, with sheep once again grazing between the vines.

The grapes are 100% Pinot Noir, picked by hand and fermented gently. The wine then ages for several months in a combination of small and large wooden casks, followed by further maturation in bottle before release.

Krafuss is one of the reference Pinot Noirs of Alto Adige: medium-bodied, juicy and silky, with the spice and minerality of its alpine site.
